TESTIMONIALS

Wedding Reception, The Dairy, Waddesdon Manor

Wow where do I start, Friday was the most perfect day for myself, Ryan, our children and guests.
You and your team were totally amazing and so helpful.
The feedback we’ve had from our guests is outstanding with people saying not only was the food the best they’d had at a wedding but the best they’ve had from anywhere.
Thank you so much for helping to create my/our perfect day, I wish I could do it all again.

A note to thank you and your team for such a marvellous lunch yesterday. We have had lots of fantastic feedback. If not too far ahead might you consider holding the date for next years’ event? Thanks as ever for being so brilliantly calm and supportive as well as for the delicious food.

We just wanted to drop you an email to say a massive thank you to you, and everyone at Passion for Food!
Everything was set up just perfectly, the food went down an absolute treat - please pass on our compliments the chef and all of the kitchen staff! Everyone commented on how great the food was, and the cheese tower looked amazing!
Greg was a delight, making sure everything went perfectly & that the glasses were always topped up! All of the staff were fantastic- friendly, professional, polite. We had many compliments on how impressed people were with the catering staff.
Also, all your help throughout the process was fantastic. We couldn't have asked for anything better, and we just thought we should let you know.
Please pass on a huge thanks to Greg, the chef & all of the team who were involved- we can't thank you all enough.

Wedding Reception, Quainton, Buckinghamshire

We cannot recommend using Nicky and her team at Passion for Food highly enough! We were lucky enough to have the team cater our wedding for 170 people in a marquee wedding. Nicky and the team cooked up the most incredible meal for our guests and we have been completely inundated since with people telling us how amazing the food was, many saying it was the best steak they have ever had and one person even saying it was the best meal they have ever had full stop! This all cooked up in a small tent with portable equipment and the added complication of me taking the key to the generator to the service with me in the pocket of my groom's suit meaning they had to start cooking 90 minutes late... Nicky was also an absolute godsend in the planning of the wedding. We were doing everything ourselves so having her expertise, guidance and voice of reason was invaluable. She provided sound advice on everything from decor to running order of the day in the build up and an unflappable calmness and a completely trustworthy ally on the day itself. Our only regret is that we didn't ask Nicky to take on more responsibility!'
Thank you so much Nicky & team!

Dan & Lucy Williams

Wedding Reception, Marquee, Buckinghamshire

Now that the dust has settled following last weekend’s celebrations I have finally found time to sit down and write to you. I cannot thank you enough for all you did to help Lucy and Dan’s wedding go so well. The canapes and the wedding breakfast were sublime. We were
inundated with compliments on the meal during the evening and that has continued this week with letters from guests, all of whom have commented on the food and the service. The work of the food preparation staff, the cooking on the day (despite a power problem) and the level of service were all at five star level. Most importantly, your calm and assured management of everything from our first meeting to the end of the event gave us the confidence to relax and enjoy the day ourselves. Thank you so much!

Wedding Reception, Worton Hall, Oxfordshire

This is a slightly belated mail to say THANK YOU so much to all of you for the really fantastic catering at our wedding. We have had numerous compliments about how delicious the food was, and we agree with all of them. It was particularly impressive considering you were feeding 156 of us!
Here is one of the comments a guest sent me:
"OMG. Such. delicious. food. Best wedding food I have ever had. Like restaurant-cooked-just-for-your-table-of-two food. So tasty. You guys must have found the best wedding caterer in the UK. I promise no flattery here. From start to finish every course was insanely good."
The food was a really important part of the day for us and we're so glad we chose you to provide it.

Wedding Reception, Wrest Park, Bedfordshire

Just a quick note to say thank you very much to you, and the team, for the fabulous food last weekend. It was definitely the best food we have had at wedding and we heard similar comments from plenty of our guests so it completely met our expectations. I ate too much beef to properly enjoy the cheese board but it all got eaten the next day at our informal post-match afternoon session. Martin thinks the evening food sausage rolls are the best he has had - which is high praise given how many he eats. It really was a truly fantastic meal.

Harriet

Wedding Reception, Rhodes House, Oxford

We just wanted to write to thank you, Nicky, Katie, the chef and all the staff who were involved last Saturday. It was a wonderful event and thanks to you all we enjoyed delicious food and it all ran so smoothly. There were many compliments from the guests about the food. All your staff were delightful, helpful and smiled. They were just so nice. I am sorry I did not have the opportunity to thank everyone personally. It all went by so quickly. Please thank them all, especially Katie who did a brilliant job. We were highly impressed. And thank you for guiding me through it all and pointing us in the right direction.

Amanda and Robert Thomson

Wedding Reception, Wrest Park, Bedfordshire

I just wanted to say thank you so much for making everything so incredible on Saturday! When we first met you we said that it was important for our guests to a - be fed good food. There is nothing worse than going to a wedding all day and being hungry.
We received so many compliments from guests about the food. Even the veggie guests said 'that they had never had such amazing food. The vegetarian option is usually just something thrown together. It was so delicious'
I also loved there was a table that asked for a second helping of chocolate bread and butter pudding which you kindly gave to them.
The orangery just looked phenomenal! I loved the bar set up in the orangery too!
Nicky you and your team by far exceeded our expectations. Thank you so much for all of your help and for making our day so incredible!

Jo and Dave

Wedding Reception, Kirtlington Park, Oxfordshire

Thank you so much for helping to make our day so special. The food and service was amazing! Even now 6 weeks on, lots of our friends and family still talk about how beautiful the food was. The staff were absolutely fantastic and did everything they could to make the day run seamlessly. We would not hesitate to highly recommend Phil, Katie and the team to anyone planning a special event!

Caroline Sheriff & Tim Rust

Canapé Reception, Gayhurst House, Gayhurst, Newport Pagnell

I just wanted to add my most sincere thanks to you all for making the party after Irene’s funeral on Wednesday such a resounding success. Challenged with the rain outside and the humidity in the marquee inside, you delivered fabulous canapés and excellent wine service. Pouring 150 bottles of champagne certainly kept your staff occupied! They were all lovely - attractive young men and women, beautifully turned out and attentive and helpful in the extreme.
From the moment we left your premises near Waddesdon Manor after our canapé tasting the previous week, I didn’t have a single qualm about your ability to deliver on the day. And deliver you did. The service in the church had been marvellous and the party at Gayhurst was fabulous - Irene would have been so pleased! It was a magnificent send-off.
Thank you all. I look forward to working with you again sometime in the future and I will certainly recommend you without reservation. I wish you every success in the future.
